The universe kinda becomes like a god. All that energy and vibe stuff is like a way of praying. It's all about faith, not really backed by evidence....
religion is about shifting the blame to someone else
I agree, in this case, the Law of Attraction blames the believers, but somehow people fail to see this and instead think they deserve the misfortune because they haven't 'put in enough energy'.
I didn't think this would get this much downvotes. Maybe I wasn't clear enough, leading to people misunderstand my post and think that I was trying to prove law of attraction is true.
I totally agree with you! I think it works but not in the way people think it is.
It can be frustrating when authors and others attempt to market the concept as scientifically grounded, kinda like a cult at times.
I feel bad for people who persist in the wrong direction and repeatedly fail to achieve their goals. It's even worse when, after all that, they blame themselves for "not communicating well with the universe".
I see, I think describing the whole universe as a god in a symbolic way can make sense.
Anyway, the trouble starts when people go beyond symbolism and start asking for help, making wishes, and sometimes blaming this "deity" for undesirable events. Relying on an entity whose existence remains uncertain, let alone he/she cares about you, is like gamble, which sounds unsettling.
I'm 24 and dealing with high blood pressure. I've seen five doctors, had countless tests, and they all say the same thing: "Take these pills and try to reduce pressure in your life." It's as though my blood pressure and heart rate have minds of their own, fluctuating freely without any reason....
I also believe that philosophy could be invaluable during times like these, offering us new perspectives on life's challenges. Thanks a bunch for your suggestion!
My heart rate isn't always elevated, but when it does... over the roof. I believe those moments might be what they call panic attacks. I've noticed similar instances. Sometimes, I'll be lying in bed, watching YouTube, and suddenly experience palpitations out of nowhere. These random occurrences often worry me the most. Anyway, thank you for sharing your story!
Being an artist with a sensitive mind might make me prone to overthinking, which in turn can raise my stress levels. Your story really resonated with me, so thank you for sharing it!
Thank you for your honest advice and straightforward approach, it's really helpful. I'll definitely take a moment to reconsider things that might have slipped my mind but affect my health.
Typing to much means you really care about others! Thanks a lot for that!
You're 100000 times stronger than most people I know, including myself. I'm so sorry for all you've had to endure. It's strange how hearing about others' struggles can sometimes make us feel better, but it truly does.
Law of Attraction is just a modern-day religion

When was the last time you felt helpless in life?
